I may be having a brain freeze.  All I need to do is get my Adobe Reader back on my PC's new hard drive to read and edit PDFs and auto sign

    If your subscription is for Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Standard please tell us, because the instructions for Acrobat Reader will not work for you.

    Otherwise,

    1. Go to http://get.adobe.com/reader

    2. Check the "special offers" before downloading and turn off what you don't need.

    3. Download and install (follow instructions).

    4. Start Reader and sign in with the Adobe ID used to pay for the subscription.

    Ok, does sound like you had Reader, so I recommend you download it from the link I gave.

    That's interesting. ExportPDF allows you to convert PDF to other formats (like Microsoft Word, JPEG). Nothing else. It does NOT allow you to edit. Acrobat Pro allows you to edit.

    But... it depends exactly what you mean by "edit". For example, you can add notes and fill forms with the free Reader.

    Yes.  I do mean fill in forms and add notes.   Also, I have been able to sign electronically when needed..  Can you tell me now how to proceed?  Thanks!!

    Thank you.  Adobe Export PDF, Annual   is the way my account lists my plan.  I'm sorry I can't find my Adobe file at the moment to answer more clearly, I think its Acrobat Pro as I can edit PDFs and sign.
